正在加载。。。正在加载。。。美国商务部宣布向Absolics Inc.提供7500万美元的赠款。，该公司生产用于半导体封装的玻璃基板。根据《芯片与科学法案》，该倡议旨在通过在佐治亚州科文顿建造一座新设施，增强美国在技术方面的领导地位。拟建的12万平方英尺的工厂将专注于开发用于半导体封装的先进基板技术，这标志着芯片首次为此目的投资商业设施。该项目预计将在佐治亚州科文顿创造1000个建筑工作岗位和200个制造和研究岗位。该工厂将提供对该国半导体工业至关重要的先进材料。

The funding comes from the U.S. government’s $52.7 billion initiative to boost semiconductor manufacturing and development, Reuters reported.Founded in 2021, Absolics has pioneered a glass substrate technology that allows processing and memory chips to be integrated into a single device, improving speed and efficiency.Also Read: AI Startup Scale Secures $1B From Investors Including AMD, Amazon & Meta, Doubling Valuation To $13.8BThe company, an affiliate of SKC Co., part of South Korea’s SK Group, began construction of the Georgia plant in November 2022, with Applied Materials Inc AMAT as an investor.CEO Jun Rok Oh stated that the funding will enable Absolics to fully commercialize its glass substrate technology for high-performance computing and advanced defense applications.The Commerce Department emphasized that these substrates will enhance the performance of cutting-edge chips used in AI and data centers.In a broader context, SK Hynix recently announced a $3.87 billion investment for a new packaging plant and R&D facility in Indiana focused on AI pro.

据路透社报道，这笔资金来自美国政府527亿美元的计划，旨在促进半导体制造和发展。Absolics成立于2021年，开创了一种玻璃基板技术，可以将处理和存储芯片集成到单个设备中，从而提高速度和效率。另请阅读：AI Startup Scale从包括AMD、亚马逊和Meta在内的投资者那里获得了10亿美元的资金，使估值翻了一番，达到138亿美元。该公司是韩国SK集团旗下SKC Co.的子公司，于2022年11月开始建设佐治亚州工厂，Applied Materials Inc AMAT作为投资者。首席执行官吴俊禄表示，这笔资金将使Absolics能够将其玻璃基板技术完全商业化，用于高性能计算和先进的国防应用。商务部强调，这些基板将提高AI和数据中心使用的尖端芯片的性能。在更广泛的背景下，SK Hynix最近宣布投资38.7亿美元，在印第安纳州新建一家包装厂和研发设施，重点是AI pro。
